Cafe & Sandwich Bars, West Yorkshire

SANDWICH BAR in Wakefield for Sale

An outstanding opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented and well-established sandwich bar that has successfully traded from the same location for almost 40 years. The current owner took over the business in 2023 and is now reluctantly offering it for sale due to ill health.

Situated on the outskirts of Wakefield city centre, the business benefits from excellent passing trade, a strong surrounding residential customer base, and the convenience of roadside parking nearby.
The premises have been fitted out to a high standard and are presented in excellent condition throughout. The well-equipped kitchen includes a comprehensive range of stainless steel commercial catering equipment together with a modern extraction system, providing an efficient and professional working environment.

The business is owner-operated with the support of a small team of part-time staff and currently generates a healthy weekly turnover of £1,800–£2,200. It trades over six days with straightforward operating hours, offering an excellent work-life balance.

Since taking over, the current owner has successfully introduced a delivery service, including trading through Just Eat, which has created an additional income stream. The business has also expanded into outside catering, providing further revenue and an excellent platform for future growth. There remains considerable scope to develop the catering side of the business further and to extend the opening hours, subject to the necessary consents, allowing a new owner to maximise the business's full potential.

The premises are held on a secure lease at a sensible rent and comprise a spacious sales and customer waiting area, an open-plan kitchen and food preparation area, WC facilities, and a useful cellar providing additional storage space.

This is an ideal opportunity for an owner-operator or experienced caterer to acquire a long-established business with a loyal customer base, multiple income streams, and genuine potential for further growth. EPC Band D.
